Abstract: An improved head and neck support device (10) for occupants (100) of high performance vehicles, is described. The device includes a restraining yoke (12) and a collar (11). The restraining yoke has two front portions (12A and 12B) which extend down from the shoulders (102) of the occupant along the torso (104) of the occupant. The restraining yoke also includes a rear portion (12C) which extends behind the neck (106) and the shoulders of the occupant. The collar of the device extends upward from the rear portion of the restraining yoke behind the head (112) of the occupant. The collar of the device is connected by tethers (15 or 215) to the helmet (108) of the occupant. The shoulder belts (110A) of the shoulder harness (110) of the vehicle extend over the front portions and rear portion of the restraining yoke when the device is mounted on the occupant such that the device is between the shoulder belts and the occupant. The collar acts to transfer the forces from the helmet through the tethers to the collar of the restraining yoke which transfers the forces to the shoulder harness thereby reducing the forces being transmitted to the neck of the occupant.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a suctional holder that can smoothly take substrates in and out of a substrate housing section even when the substrates are thin in thickness and largely flexed due to their dead weights, and to provide a transporter provided with the holder and a method of transporting the substrates. SOLUTION: In a magazine 50, a number of substrates 110 are housed in a state where their outer edges 110b are supported by left and right locking protrusions 51. When the substrates 110 are taken in and out of the magazine 50, the substrates 110 are locked by the locking protrusions 51 in the magazine 50 by inserting the paired arms 21 of the suctional holder into the magazine 50 or, conversely, the substrates 110 are sucked and held by means of sucking members 22 respectively installed to the arms 21. The arms 21 are constituted to hold the substrates 110 in a state where the arms 21 support the vicinities of the outer edges 110b of the substrates from the bottom side. In addition, since the sucking members 22 are attached to the arms 21 in inclinable states, the substrates 110 are held in curved states where their central parts 110a are hung down.
